> USIv2 IP-core provides selectable serial protocol (UART, SPI or High-Speed

> driver, which allows one to select particular USI function in device tree,
> and also performs USI block initialization.

> This way we can load serial driver module from user space and still have
> serial console functional.

> Design features:
>   - "reg" property contains USI registers start address (0xc0 offset);
>     it's used in the driver to access USI_CON and USI_OPTION registers.
>     This way all USI initialization (reset, HWACG, etc) can be done in
>     USIv2 driver separately, rather than duplicating that code over
>     UART/SPI/I2C drivers
>   - System Register (system controller node) and its SW_CONF register
>     offset are provided in "samsung,sysreg" property; it's used to
>     select USI function (protocol to be used)
>   - USI function is specified in "samsung,mode" property; integer value
>     is used to simplify parsing
>   - there is "samsung,clkreq-on" bool property, which makes driver
>     disable HWACG control (needed for UART to work properly)
>   - PCLK and IPCLK clocks are both provided to USI node; apparently both
>     need to be enabled to access USI registers
>   - protocol nodes are embedded (as a child nodes) in USI node; it
>     allows correct init order, and reflects HW properly
>   - USI driver is a tristate: can be also useful from Android GKI
>     requirements point of view
>   - driver functions are implemented with further development in mind:
>     - we might want to add some DebugFs interface later
>     - some functions might need to be revealed to serial drivers with
>       EXPORT_SYMBOL(), and provide somehow pointer to needed USI driver
>       instance
>     - another USI revisions could be added (like USIv1)
> 
> Changes in v3:
>   - Renamed compatible from samsung,exynos-usi-v2 to samsung,exynos850-usi
>   - Used clk_bulk API instead of handling each clock separately
>   - Spell check fixes and coding style fixes
>   - Improved dt-bindings doc
> 
> Changes in v2:
>   - Renamed all 'usi_v2' wording to just 'usi' everywhere
>   - Removed patches adding dependency on EXYNOS_USI for UART/I2C/SPI

>   - Combined dt-bindings doc and dt-bindings header patches
